Traction Control Switch

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Ford RV Cutaway, 2009 Ford Econoline, 2009 Ford E450 Super Duty, and 2009 Ford Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The traction control switch is hardwired to the IPC  . The IPC  communicates switch status to the ABS module via the HS-CAN  bus. The traction control switch allows the driver to control use of the traction control system. This is independent of the ABS, ESC  and RSC®  functions, which cannot be switched off by the driver. Traction control system status is indicated by the stability/traction control indicator "sliding-car icon" in the IPC  . The system will automatically restore to full functionality when the ignition switch is cycled from OFF to RUN.
